I was talking to some shippers about this last night on the S/J list. I'm just going to c/p part of it instead of trying to remember what I'd said.
(edit)
Some might say that things aren't 'exactly' the same,
and that the timeline 'was' screwed up because Sam and
Jack weren't sitting exactly the same way together on
the pier, or because their dialog was slightly
different, or the fish situation, but... the only time
things 'did' divert was when they never had to go back
to get the zpm. again.
I'll admit I was bothered by the fish situation, but
Joe told us (in his q and a thread here) that
Jack just didn't know he had any. (crappy fisher or he
needed the right 'bait' to get them to come out and
play? ). He just truly believed he didn't have any
in his pond. Anyhoo, i was worried for a bit, but Joe
set us straight.
Anyways, I think things are a bit off on the second
'Sam and Jack fishing scene', because things 'did'
change after Daniel would have gotten the phone call
about Catherine's death that set the whole ball
rolling. It (the discoverly about the zpm in ancient Egypt)
didn't happen this time, so things were a bit different from 'then'
on. If we were given the chance to live a day over again, knowing
that we were still going to go to the book store to pick up a gift,
and make the friday-favorite chicken dinner, would we
still wear the same outfit or do everything exactly at
the same moment we'd done it before? All I'm saying is
it's the chaos factor. A simple thing like Sam
brushing her teeth ten seconds later could cause her
whole day to be off from the original airing of that
day...
Am i making any sense? (I 'really' don't know
what the hayhoo i'm talking about )
